What is one of the best ways to end an amazing first year of elementary school? With a picnic, of course!
Kent Primary's youngest class celebrated the end of their kindergarten year in style with a special gathering with their parents/guardians and families. First grade, here they come!
In their final performance as Kent Primary Eagles, fourth-grade students sang their hearts out for parents, families and special guests with an amazing set list of songs.
Sing a song of Aesop and learn a thing or two!
Second-grade students in Lisa Chase’s class at Kent Primary School brought the legendary fables of Aesop to life in front of a sizeable crowd of parents and family members to teach meaningful and timely life morals.
Read the full story and see more photos from the performance!
For Kent Primary School students, magic was in the air at a recent character-building assembly focused on taking pride in their actions and their character. Through the illusion and wonders of a guest magician sponsored by the school’s Parent Teacher Organization, the magic assembly, designed to promote respect, responsibility, independence, determination and empathy, had students smiling, laughing, thinking, and celebrating their own character strengths.
Using different magic tricks and optical illusions, magician Robert McEntee created a positive and fun environment in which students learned that their behaviors are connected to results and that there is an important distinction between laughing with – but never at – someone.

April showers brought many May flowers!
Kindergarten students in Ms. Bell’s art classes created sweet watercolor flowers in mosaic vases in time for Mother’s Day earlier this month to celebrate someone special in their lives.
Math Moment: For second-grade students in Mrs. Carlson’s class at Kent Primary School, it was a double-compare subtraction and memory game fun afternoon to hone their subtraction skills. There was not one, but two different games for the students to choose from – double the fun! Read more about the math games and see photos of our students having fun.
Schools will be closed; Administrative Office will be open.
All schools will be dismissed 15 minutes earlier than the regular dismissal time in order to test the early dismissal response of the Emergency Management Plan.

What We Do:
As an academic institution we contribute to the development of minds through inspiring children to create and pursue their own goals and objectives.
